(2022-11-15)Finding the nature of dark matter is one of the biggest quest in physics today. One of the various methods for dark matter detection is direct detection in which the interaction between dark matter and the normal matter ...
-
(2020-03-25)The advent of offshore renewable energy, e.g. wind, wave, and tidal, holds the promise of significant environmental and economic benefits. Once built, the energy produced by offshore renewable energy farms is transmitted ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)The capability to easily and inexpensively fabricate microfluidic devices with negligible dependence on specialized laboratory equipment continues to be one of the primary forces driving the widespread use of plastic-based ...
-
(2014-01-13)This dissertation proposed to initiate the research into the fabrication of metal/oxide nanostructures by anodization process for biosensor, drug delivery and supercapacitor applications by producing different nanostructures ...
-
(2013-06-21)Patterned arrays of metallic nanostructures are commonly used in photonics, electronics, as well as functional materials and biotechnology because of their unique electronic and optical properties. Although great effort ...
-
(2009-05-15)This thesis investigated the microstructure and mechanical property of RRR( high purity) and RG (low purity) niobium (Nb) sheet material. RRR Nb is used in the fabrication RF cavities. Our method involves processing bulk ...
-
(2013-04-26)As an important type of organic semiconductors, organic small molecule crystals have great potential for low-cost applications such as plastic solar cells (PSC), organic light emitting diodes (OLED) and organic field-effect ...
-
(2009-05-15)A new fabrication process of organic and inorganic nanoparticles and cups by electrospraying blended polymer-sol-gel solutions followed by calcination has been investigated. Because of low viscosity and high surface tension ...
-
(2018-11-05)This dissertation investigated face-to-face (FTF) interactions and computer-mediated communication (CMC) in second language acquisition (SLA) through a systematic literature review and two mixed-methods empirical studies. ...
-
(2014-08-20)The research objective of this dissertation is to develop new facet-defining valid inequalities for several new multi-parameter multi-constraint mixed integer sets. These valid inequalities result in cutting planes that ...
-
(2019-07-09)Facial expressions plan a very important role in interpersonal relations as they convey nonverbal cues. Automatic recognition of facial expressions forms a crucial component in human-machine interfaces. The main motivation ...
-
(2020-11-11)Facial landmark detection has been widely adopted for body language analysis and facial identification task. A variety of facial landmark detectors have been proposed in different approaches, such as AAM, AdaBoost, LBF and ...
-
(2014-12-15)Seismic inversion approach has been applied with a moderate success in some siliciclastic reservoirs in Oriente Basin characterized by their prominent lateral facies variations. Different types of facies with different ...
-
(2016-04-07)The Upper Cretaceous in Texas is a proven prolific hydrocarbon system. The “Eaglebine” in Central Texas, which includes both the Eagle Ford and Woodbine intervals, is an emerging play with promising results. However, ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)The facies architecture and geometry of stratigraphic surfaces within a lignite bearing interval of the Paleocene upper Calvert Bluff Formation is mapped on a photomosaic of the 150 ft (50 m) high and 12,000 ft (4km) long ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)The Late Cretaceous upper Sego Member of the Mancos Shale exposed in the Book Cliffs of east-central Utah is a 30 m thick sandstone wedge that overlies the Anchor Mine Tongue of the Mancos Shale and underlies coastal plain ...
-
(2010-01-16)Present models suggest that fluvial and marine depositional patterns were distinct from modern patterns prior to the appearance of land plants. Although these models are likely correct, problems exist when one attempts to ...
-
(2015-12-12)The interaction between the Caribbean and South American plates produced irregular sea-floor topography on Bonaire (part of the Leeward Antilles Islands), which enables the deposition of calcium carbonate sediments. To ...
-
(2015-05-13)This study presents the depositional facies, sequence stratigraphy, chemostratigraphy and diagenetic evolution of the Middle-Late Triassic Al Aziziyah Formation, Jifarah Basin northwest Libya. Eight measured sections were ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)The Shattuck Sandstone Member of the Guadalupian age Queen Formation was deposited in back-reef environments on a carbonate platform of the Northwest Shelf (Permian Basin, New Mexico, USA) during a lowstand of sea level. ...
